You’ve done some crazy things in your love lifetime: Sleeping with your cell phone near your head as you wait for that boy to call. Googling him to find out his interests…and then getting interested in professional hot dog eating yourself. Eating only half of your burger when you could have eaten the whole thing and the fries so he didn’t think you were a heffer.

A few months ago my roommate and I went to a strip club with some friends. I was expecting a trashy bar with dirty-looking girls, but it wasn’t like that at all. The club was small, clean, and felt safe. The girls were all attractive, not supermodels, but they looked real. And we had a blast.
